Jingles

Perhaps the best-known jingle was "You deserve a break today" (a song sometimes incorrectly attributed to a young Barry Manilow,[8] who did sing it in one version of the commercial and thus included it in his "Very Strange Medley" of product theme songs, with others he had written) in fact, written by jingle singer/song writer Kenny Karen. In the accompanying TV commercial,[9] there was almost no mention of food. Instead, the ad featured an all-male McDonald's cleaning crew, singing after-hours about their individual tasks, and emphasizing that "at McDonald's it's clean!" just before launching into the almost operatic chorus: "You deserve a break today / So get up and get away / To McDonald's!" Another well known jingle was the "McDonald's is your kind of place / It's such a happy place / Hap, hap, hap, happy place..." from 1967, sung to the tune of "Down by the Riverside".[10] This jingle was parodied by many older kids at the time when it aired.

McDonald's menu song

The McDonald's $1,000,000 Menu Song was an instant-win promotion created as part of an advertising campaign, which ran from 1988 to early 1989. As the name suggests, the song, which was a remake of Reunion's 1974 hit single "Life Is a Rock (But the Radio Rolled Me)", incorporates all of the items (at that time) on the McDonald's menu: sandwiches, other lunch/dinner items, breakfast items, dessert items, and drinks, in that order.

Promotion overview

Either Eva-Tone Soundsheets or cardboard records containing the song were attached to advertising inserts and distributed within newspapers across the United States. On all but one of the issued recordings, the singers were not able to recite the song perfectly from start to finish; when the singers made a mistake, the record was over. On the unique, prize-winning recording, the singers were able to complete the song; this record was a $1,000,000 instant winner.

Approximately 80,000,000 records were distributed, and only one of them was a winner.[12] The promotion was won by Galax, Virginia, resident Charlene Price, who used the money to purchase the convenience store where she worked.[13]

United States lyrics

The lyrics read as follows:

Big Mac, McDLT, a Quarter-Pounder with some cheese, Filet-O-Fish, a hamburger, a cheeseburger, a Happy Meal. McNuggets, tasty golden french fries, regular or larger size, and salads: chef or garden, or a chicken salad oriental. Big Big Breakfast, Egg McMuffin, hot hot cakes, and sausage. Maybe biscuits, bacon, egg and cheese, a sausage, danish, hash browns too. And for dessert hot apple pies, and sundaes three varieties, a soft-serve cone, three kinds of shakes, and chocolatey chip cookies. And to drink a Coca-Cola, Diet Coke, and orange drink, A Sprite and coffee, decaf too, A lowfat milk, also an orange juice. I love McDonald's, good time great taste, and I get this all at one place...

Québec

Around the same time (1989–90), a French version of the ad campaign was produced for Quebec; however, no promotion was attached. [1]

The order given in this version was sandwiches, other lunch/dinner items, dessert items, drinks, and breakfast. The Québec lyrics read as follows:

Big Mac, McDLT, un quart de livre avec fromage, filet de poisson, un hamburger, un cheeseburger, un McPoulet, des McCroquettes, des frites dorées en deux formats. Salade du chef, ou du jardin, ou de poulet à l'orientale voilà sûrement un vrai régal. Et pour dessert: chausson aux pommes, biscuits aux brisures chocolatées, des laits frappés en trois saveurs, un sundae y a rien de meilleur, suivi d'un Coke diet, d'un Sprite, d'un Coke, d'une délicieuse root-beer, chocolat chaud, un, lait, un thé, ou un café en deux formats. Ommelette, McMuffin au jambon, rôties un frits avec bacon, œuf McMuffin, muffin anglais, crêpes, et saucisses danoise au pommes, servez-moi donc un jus d'orange, de pamplemousse, ou bien de pommes. J'aime McDonald, j'ai le goût c'est l`heure de savoir mon menu par cœur.

United States

  • 1982 – Taste the thrill of Atari at McDonald's.
  • 1984 – Los Angeles Olympics Scratch-off game.
  • 1988 – Seoul Olympics Scratch-off game. Customers received a card for an Olympic event. If the USA won gold in that event, you won a Big Mac. If the USA got Silver, you won a medium fries. If the USA got bronze, you won a small drink.
  • 1989 – Million-Dollar McDonald's song contest for Big Mac.
  • 1991 – Dick Tracy Scratch-off game. This one was easily broken and many people essentially cheated to win as folding the card in half and rubbing a coin on the crease allowed you to see the winnings. Upon finding the winning circle, you just folded it back up, scratched off the winner, and the associate didn't have a clue.
  • 1996–2000, 2004, 2009 – Teenie Beanie Babies
  • 1999 – Disney's Inspector Gadget Code Name Game
